Workers look out of a tea stall in Dharavi. Home to over a million people, Dharavi, considered to be one of Asia's largest slums is a heart-shaped settlement in central Mumbai spread over an area of km. Authorities in India's financial capital invited a global tender early June 2007 to tear down the slums and replace it with gleaming new apartments, but the project is a suspect in the eyes of most of its habitants. The development program includes 100 billion rupees ($ billion) in seven years to develop Dharavi. India, June 20, 2007.
